To celebrate this and my new move across town (yes! i will even take pictures!), The OverCher is having a CONTEST!!! How to enter:
1) Comment on this post with your email and a poem. That's right...haiku or limerick preferred. Or free verse. One line is OK. We're all about experimentation here.
2) I will random-number-select the winner!
The Prize will be a real live care package that comes in the mail! It will most likely include poems, cookies and wee books. And I will interview you and post a verbal portrait of you that is entirely flattering. HOW CAN YOU REFUSE?
i have been staring at this post for well over 20 minutes trying to think of something witty.
ReplyDelete...i will be back!

i have never wanted to win something so badly.
ReplyDeletebut i can't think of anything. maybe if i go to sleep sometime this week.
hey, i was reading a couple of posts back and I don't think you should la roux your hair because of one reason: i am so in love with her (in fact, m'dear, i have met her) that you risk me driving down to virginia and doing things that would destroy our friendship.

also, someone the other day told me my spirit animal is cher, because I have a theory that every song can be improved if you sing it like cher. i thought of you and i silently thought to myself: i am stealing mc's spirit animal! this is so badass!
ReplyDeleteevery song CAN be improved if you sing it like cher! just ask christian! he loves it when i cover soul classics in my cher voice. really. LOVES IT.
ReplyDeleteI must win this Over-Cher contest
ReplyDeleteso after I may be rightly blest
with many wee books
and covetous looks
from Choo as she then waxes impressed.
Yeahhh this contest just makes me love this blog even more. I didn't think it was possible. My boyfriend is getting jealous. As you are facebook friendz with me, I will abstain from putting my email up here.
trip to the gato
ReplyDeletewaltz down memory lane
all the same regulars
the twilight zone! that trip was insane
your mixes are still playing
baristas still sashaying
but their moves need improvement,
this new crop of youngins
no soulja boy dance,
just a new london fog drank
still red and still cat
still home and yet not
new mugs and old mugs
reunions and group hugs
saw gatoh sevens, oh sixes, oh eights and oh nines
but my gato twenty-ten,
the search ended poorly:
no MC in cambridge,
now what's that about?
next time, dear, next time,
we'll work it all out.
for now just a little hello
(or a long one at that)
to say your blog is pretty fly!
red cats are good at that.

ReplyDeleteCherish this moment

not hitting the floor.
Nobody but Cher
